Chapter 99 Help (1/2)
All the staff members were afraid to speak when the big boss Jiang Xianbang slowly got out of the car and walked into Shangshan Ruoshui. Everyone knew that the big boss looked kind-hearted, but he was a cruel and domineering person. No one dared to offend him. The artists standing in the doorway all bowed toward him and called him ”Mr. Jiang”.
”Where is Xu Lancheng?” As he had just passed by Sinan Road, Jiang Xianbang had got a call from Little Zheng and a report from Xu Lancheng, so he dropped into the Sinan Mansion in case Xu Lancheng would fight with Qin Sheng.
One of the artists in the doorway whispered, ”Mr. Jiang, they're in the room on the third floor.”
Jiang Xianbang clasped his hands behind his back and waddled toward the third floor with a smile on his face. Really, he walked like a penguin. However, this penguin was merciless. His driver-bodyguard followed him while quietly looking at the artists and princes up and down. There were four bodyguards waiting outside the door. Jiang Xianbang had offended many people over the past years and he did not want to get killed, so he paid a large sum of money to invite those skilled bodyguards to protect him.
Not far from the lobby on the first floor, Lyu Yuan and Song Siyu were comforting Tang Wan, who kept crying and saying, ”It's my fault. I made Qin Sheng get into trouble. It's my fault.”
Song Siyu helped Tang Wan wipe her tears and sighed, ”Tang Wan, now that it has already happened, don't blame yourself. Maybe no matter who has trouble, Qin Sheng will help him.”
Lyu Yuan agreed with it. Today, he saw the other side of Qin Sheng. It was the first time he had admired this man from the bottom of his heart. If he were the manager of the reception department, he would never dare to do this. Maybe he would fire Tang Wan as Wang Haichao did.
”Brother Lyu, Siyu. Tell me whether Qin Sheng will hate me or not. I made him lose his job,” Tang Wan asked guiltily.
Lyu Yuan shook his head and said, ”He is not such a person.”
Anyway, the trio had given up their hope that Qin Sheng could turn the tables. Even the big boss came here; it was estimated that Qin Sheng and Tang Wan would get fired. Perhaps many people thought it was not worth it and felt it was not worth his while defending her. Although they admired Qin Sheng and thanked him, they thought it was stupid for Qin Sheng to speak up for a small artist.
In this society, most people would weigh the pros and cons before they made a decision, instead of thinking whether what they would do was right or wrong. ”The Continent” directed by Han Han said: children would judge by the rule of right and wrong while adults only cared about the pros and cons. Hence most of them lived like a dog or even worse.
The largest room on the third floor was decorated in the style of the Republic of China. All the chairs and tables in it were collection-level and the paintings which hung on the wall were masterpieces of modern times. Every time there was a small salon or event, it would be held here, but only the VVIP members had access to it.
Xu Lancheng looked livid. He was really infuriated by Qin Sheng. The staff member actually dared to beat their members and had been reported to the big boss, which was the absolute taboo for Shangshan Ruoshui. There was only one principle in Shangshan Ruoshui: Members were always right. Even if members were wrong, staff members had to bear it.
”You're too arrogant! Look at what you've done. Do you know the rule of Shangshan Ruoshui?” Xu Lancheng roared as he pointed at Qin Sheng's nose.
Wang Haichao added fuel to the fire and said, ”Mr. Xu, I couldn't block him and he even wanted to hit me. You don't know what a fuss he made at that time. He directly knocked Brother Zheng and his two friends to the ground. If Mr. Chang had not arrived in time, things would have got worse.”
Wang Haichao dared to dress Qin Sheng down, but he did not dare to offend Chang Baji, unless he wanted to lose his job. Hence he said those words and flattered Chang Baji in passing.
Ms. An, who stood not far from them, wore a disdainful look. She disliked Wang Haichao more and more, who was too shrewd, scheming, and reluctant to suffer losses.
After that, what Chang Baji said would be a slap in Wang Haichao's face. Chang Baji said in a flat tone, ”I think Qin Sheng didn't do anything wrong.”
Wang Haichao was stunned as if the word ”What?” appeared on his face.
Ms. An and Xu Lancheng also looked surprised. As for Qin Sheng, Xu Lancheng knew little about this vice-general manager. Apart from the matters of the security department, he had never asked about his condition since Qin Sheng took this job. He did not expect that Chang Baji would side with Qin Sheng, Thinking that Chang Baji was also sent by Mr. Jiang, Xu Lancheng wondered, ”Is he Qin Sheng's guardian?”
”Shangshan Ruoshui has its rule. The members are distinguished, but aren't artists humans? Like what Manager Qin said, what place is Shangshan Ruoshui? It's not a nightclub. They can't bully artists at will. The friend of the member whose surname was Zheng was too arrogant. If Manager Qin had not spoken up for artists, they would have felt down.” Chang Baji explained slowly.
Chang Baji defended Qin Sheng. Xu Lancheng was unable to give face to him, so he said, ”Then tell me, how you will deal with this matter? If it isn't fixed well, it will affect other members.”
Chang Baji said, ”It's already happened. And they also apologized. We can only stand on Manager Qin's side. If they don't want to let it go, we can turn to the law.”
Xu Lancheng narrowed his eyes and asked, ”Then tell me, how will you explain to Mr. Jiang?”
The moment Xu Lancheng finished his words, Jiang Xianbang pushed the door open. Xu Lancheng thought it was someone else, and he subconsciously shouted, ”I said, no one is allowed in. Are you turning a deaf ear to my words?”
”Old Xu, you're old enough, but why is your temper so bad?” Jiang Xianbang said with a big smile.
Seeing that it was Jiang Xianbang, everyone looked a bit surprised. Xu Lancheng and the others bowed to him and greeted him respectfully. ”Mr. Jiang.”
Jiang Xianbang waved his hand and responded. ”Except for Old Xu and Little Qi, the rest of you may excuse yourselves. I want to know what happened. Little Zheng called me and told me that our Shangshan Ruoshui bullied them and must give them an explanation.”
Wang Haichao was overjoyed. ”The big boss came and it really caused big trouble. Qin Sheng will not only get fired, but he will also pay the price for it. Everyone knows how heartless the big boss was when dealing with those things. Alas, poor Qin Sheng!”
Glancing at Jiang Xianbang, Chang Baji knew that things would not get worse and that Jiang Xianbang would not make Qin Sheng suffer losses, so he left with Ms. An and Wang Haichao.
After they left, Jiang Xianbang looked at Qin Sheng and asked, ”Tell me, what on earth happened? I let you work in Shangshan Ruoshui, but I haven't asked you to make a fuss!”
